With FUTO it feels nearly perfect, only issue is that in daily use I write a weird mix of German and English even in the same sentence, and hence I need full mixed-language input which it doesn’t seem to support (yet).
For a second I really thought I had now finally found an alternative to Gboard but unfortunately the swiping detection is really poor and I need it to be able to use German and English at the same time. So I guess it’s still back to Gboard. :(
Out of curiosity, do you like swiping the most? Futo’s voice recognition is really good actually, I don’t use it and prefer typing myself, it just seems like normal typing is the only thing I can do the most consistently and I seem to be decently quick at it.
I tried heliboard. It apparently kicks ass on the back end but the front end sucks and that’s the part I use.
FUTO Keyboard is the one!
Thanks for the recommendation, trying FUTO out and really liking it. Gboard posts end in good FOSS recs.

The swipe feature isn’t quite done yet, they have a dataset they are building that you can contribute to in a fun way if you want.
Soon the swipe feature will be good.

That’s great to hear. I just swiped a lot of words, hope it helps 😄
